My favourite subject is landscape especially those conveying a sense of peace and serenity. It was really a challenge to comb through my archive to come up with something which fits this week’s theme.

Last year, we were up in Chimelong Zoo and Safari park in Panyu, China. While walking through the park, I saw this orangutan resting peacefully on a hammock slung between the trees. Some visitors formed a semi-circle around him, staring at this lazy or even demure orangutan; while he was doing just the same, staring at the visitors and letting the world went by.

Then to the surprise of everyone, he suddenly rose up and started swinging up and down. As he was swinging towards me, I noted he has a surprised face which I have never seen before. He certainly surprised me. Did I surprise him? I don’t know, all I wanted to do was to quickly take his photo . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .what a decent surprise!
